I was like that with my PS4.
I did get hooked on Cyberpunk and Witcher 3 on the PS5.
Even then, my 8/16-bit games are always played more.
I’ve got so much original hardware, seems a shame to waste it 🤣

Same, I didn’t realise how hard it is to find a UK one
One day maybe….
Yes, those Microsphere games are fantastic. Some of the very best for the Speccy

Yes, I had a Commodore 64 back in the early 80s and Football Manager took 20 minutes to load from the cassette 🤣

I just shrugged it off. I’m fairly well conditioned to being ripped off when buying pretty much anything in the UK now.
I have four 48k Speccy’s but gave up with the ZX81 back in 1981!
I don’t need any of these but I want them.
Perhaps I need to talk to a professional 🤣
TOB’s full of the devs…. 🤣🤣

I understand. I’ve got a C64 Starlight on order too…
And another Speccy Next 🤣
I thought it was a bit strange that I couldn’t see it when I searched Amazon for it but got there in the end.

Just preordered my The A1200 from Amazon
#Retrogaming #Amiga
That’s what I’m going to do

Is it likely Amazon will be somewhere I can pre-order one from?

Wow, that counts... I just stick to beer so I'm more likely to get full before I get drunk.

I never knew that. I didn't (and still don't) have a 464.
I got the emulator etc. but never got any further.
I keep meaning to....
“Lo, the hour hath arrived, and the chimes of the fifth bell doth proclaim mine edict: the time for the quaffing of ale, henceforth known as Beer o’ Clock, is hereby ordained!”
